Leicester City and Chelsea will square off in the FA Cup final later today as fans anticipate who would win the 2020/21 edition of the oldest football competition in the world.
Chelsea would be looking to clinch their ninth FA Cup trophy if they defeat the Foxes who also hope to win their first in their first ever final of the competition when both sides clash at the Wembley Stadium this evening.
Recall Arsenal extended their lead as the club with most FA Cup wins in history (14) when they defeated Chelsea 2-1 in the final last season and the Blues who have eight trophies would be hoping to make of for last season’s disappointment.
Rodgers Urges Leicester To Make History In FA Cup Final Against Chelsea
Manchester United closely follow Arsenal with 12 wins, while Chelsea trail with 8, Tottenham (8), Liverpool and Newcastle United (7) and Manchester City (6).
While Leicester City could yet make history today with a win over Chelsea, WUZUPNIGERIA brings you a list of past winners of the FA CUP since its inception in 1871.
Arsène Wenger has won the tournament on seven occasions as Arsenal manager. George Ramsay won the tournament on six occasions with Aston Villa. Two other managers have won the title on five occasions.
Eighteen men have won the tournament both as a player and as a manager: John Cameron as player-manager in 1901, Peter McWilliam, Billy Walker, Jimmy Seed, Matt Busby, Stan Seymour, Joe Smith, Bill Shankly, Joe Mercer, Don Revie, Bob Stokoe, Kenny Dalglish, Bobby Gould, Terry Venables, George Graham, Gianluca Vialli, Roberto Di Matteo and Mikel Arteta. Cameron and Dalglish are the only two people who have guided their clubs to the title as player-managers, in 1901 and 1986 respectively.
Two managers have won the title with two sides: Billy Walker with Sheffield Wednesday in 1935 and Nottingham Forest in 1959 and Herbert Chapman with Huddersfield Town in 1922 and Arsenal 1930.
